Urgh. Yes, you are right. Wrote an additional test case for this: gnu.testlet.java.util.Hashtable.ContainsHash (it currently fails). > As I've argued before, in cases such as these (multiple virtual methods > that do the same thing), we must use the same delegation as the Sun > implementation to be compatible. Problem is that this is not always easy to know. So we depend on bug reports and then have to write a Mauve test if we think that following such behavior is beneficial. But the "newer calls older" is a guideline that will mostly work (I hope). BTW. People might want the read what Jeroen wrote earlier about it: http://weblog.ikvm.net/commentview.aspx/8b14c003-e16a-4e99-a52e-ad776cbb8cbf His blog entires (and the people who comment on it) are very nice BTW. I am always a bit sad when there is a week without a new entry. Cheers, Mark
